Major Averages Rally to Halt Losing Streak
Kenneth J. Gruneisen - Passed the CAN SLIM® Master's Exam
The Dow Jones Industrial Average closed 291 points higher at 11,522. The S&P 500 Index snapped a seven-day losing streak, finishing up 33 points at 1,192. The Nasdaq Composite Index ended at 2,527, up 85 points. Advancers beat decliners by about 5-1 on the NYSE and on the Nasdaq. Volume totals expanded as expected on the NYSE and on the Nasdaq exchange following shortened Friday session. New 52-week highs outnumbered new 52-week lows on the NYSE while new lows still outnumbered new highs on the Nasdaq exchange. There were 10 high-ranked companies from the CANSLIM.net Leaders List that made new 52-week highs and appeared on the CANSLIM.net BreakOuts Page, up from the prior session total of 1 stock. There were gains for all 15 of the high-ranked companies currently included on the Featured Stocks Page.
Stocks rebounded from the worst Thanksgiving week since 1932. Stocks were helped by record "Black Friday" sales and as European leaders increased efforts to curb contagion. Over the weekend, retail sales increased +16.4% from a year ago with $52.4 billion in sales. Consumer discretionary stocks got a boost as Macy's (M +4.72%) and J.C. Penny Co Inc (JCP +1.62%), and Best Buy Co Inc (BBY +3.36%) rose. The holiday shopping season continued with Cyber Monday, which pushed Amazon.com Inc (AMZN +6.44%).
In Europe, German and French leaders drafted a framework to commit euro zone member states to greater fiscal discipline without waiting to change EU treaties. In addition, there were rumors that the IMF is preparing a 600-billion euro loan for Italy in case the sovereign-debt crisis worsens. Stocks held gains after some housing data. A Commerce Department report showed fewer new homes were purchased in October than forecast as sales increased +1.3% to a 307,000 annual pace.
Energy and raw-material producers led the rally as crude oil touched above $100 a barrel for the first time in more than a week.
Our monthly newsletter CANSLIM.net News will be published soon with an informative review of current market conditions, leading groups, and best buy candidates. Via the Premium Member Homepage links to all prior reports and webcasts are always available.
PICTURED: The Dow Jones Industrial Average rallied near its 50-day moving average line. The Nasdaq Composite and S&P 500 Index remain well below their respective 50 DMA lines. The S&P 600 Small Cap rallied above its 50 DMA line.

Gap Up Today has Leader Poised Near Pivot Previously Cited
Kenneth J. Gruneisen - Passed the CAN SLIM® Master's Exam
O S I Systems Inc (OSIS +$2.29 or +5.39% to $44.80) gapped up today, rallying with higher (but still below average) volume back toward its previously cited pivot point. A new pivot point has not been cited however its color code was changed to yellow while consolidating well above its 50-day moving average (DMA) line. Subsequent volume-driven gains above its pivot point and recent chart highs may trigger a convincing technical buy signal.
There were no confirming gains backed by volume, and it has instead endured mild distributional pressure. Its last appearance in this FSU section was on 11/01/11 with an annotated daily graph under the headline, "Pullback My Be Handle Following Cup Shaped Base." It had gapped down, pulling back after wedging to a new 52-week high without great volume conviction.
It may be forming a longer and higher handle following the previously noted cup shaped base. It is normally considered ideal for volume to dry up during the period when a handle forms, and that is what it has done. Annual earnings (A criteria) growth has been strong and quarterly earnings increases have been above the +25% guideline satisfying the C criteria. Ownership by top-rated funds has not shown any great increases in the past 6 months. That may serve as a reminder for disciplined investors to watch for proof of fresh buying demand from the institutional crowd to confirm a proper technical buy signal. As always, limit losses if any stock ever falls more than -7% from the purchase price.
